Man, I'm in a warzone here, in a gamezone/internet cafe surrounded by Chinese and Malays playing counterstrike at HIGH VOLUME! It's one huge explosion (LOL). Needless to say my tinitus affected ears are being protected by earplugs.
I'm going to bail in a tic and take a 'Comfort Cab' back to the house I've been put up in. Cabs are bloody cheap here and most plentiful.

I've got to say the food continues to be a revelation, always a new and different dish. I had a meal with some ex pats from Canada/Britain/Australia earlier (instead of the locals I've been with). All of them had come here for a short while and ended up staying for ages. And the food was all stuff I'd never had.

Anyone here had a Durian BTW? Bahamut, Mem or Zor? If you have you'll be pleased to know I had my second one today. For those who haven't it is the most foul smelling fruit around - smells like vomit. The effect is similar to a french cheese I suppose smell=bad, taste=good. The taste is like a bizarre combination of strawberries and onions.
